One of my discoveries this week is a young British singer named Lola Young.
Here's hoping bright things come!
Okay my friends, a little late but here it is - Radio Free California Episode 2404 and it's a DOOZY. 49 tracks all told, including Lola Young, The Fauns, Blackberry Smoke, Ride, Big Big Train, Bleachers, Judas Priest, KMFDM (!), Norah Jones, Robby Krieger and much much more. Enjoy!
As per usual, my blog version will be up later with radio station notes and more.
Green Day and Sleater-Kinney have new albums out this week.
The guys in Green day has this punk-pop formula down pat, and they execute it quite well. Lots of damn fine songs on the record.
But I think the Sleater-Kinney record is better, even if much less mainstream.
The Green Day album kind of melds with everything else they've ever done, which you must admit works for them.
But the Sleater-Kinney album is one I'll come back to again and again.
As promised, here is the link to the blog version of Radio Free California Episode 2403. This includes the playlist, radio station notes about our various shows running this week, and a video I think you'll enjoy.
No cheap shots this week. MLK day and the Iowa Caucuses are on the same day. That's irony enough for me.

I close out my final Radio Free California for 2023 with this absolutely amazing track from Job Batiste.
"it Never Went Away", by American Composer Jon Batiste.
If you are so inclined, here is the final Radio Free California for 2023, Episode 2352.
Tons of new indie music to close out the year with. Guillermo Ladd, Eaves Wilder, Dream & Onion, Wishy, Yard Act, Blank Spot, Nik Fields, The Umbrellas, Real Estate and much more, including a coda from Jon Batiste. Enjoy!
My blog version will be up tomorrow. I got better things to do today than blogging.
A quick reminder: tomorrow at approx. 9am and again at approx. 9pm PST Radio Free California will be playing the new album by Field Medic called "dope girl chronicles"
I say "approx." because we always let the song currently playing finish before we jump in.
Not often, but every once and a while I wish I actually had picked up some Spanish while I lived in Southern California. Especially when Guillermo Ladd puts out new material.
This man should be a superstar.
As promised, here is the blog version of Radio Free California Episode 2351, which includes notes about a band I've added this week you won't find on Spotify or any other streaming platform called Mana Diagram, and I tell you where you can hear them. I believe we are the first radio station outside Japan to play them.
You will also find notes about programming on the radio station this week, cheap shots at the stories of the day and more!

Hey, rememberl "Where have all the Cowboys gone?" Paula Cole?
She's back, and with one of the most interesting song titles I've seen in a while: "The Replacements & Dinosoar Jr."
Music find of the day: Los Baby Jaguars, from...
...Berlin. As in Germany.
As promised, here is my blog version of this Week's Radio Free California, Episode 2350. I include some notes on the new music, programming notes for the upcoming week on the Radio Station, and take a few cheap (and often rude) shots at the news stories of the day. For good measure I thrown in a music video you might like to see.
Enjoy!
